This is a truly extraordinary haiga, Autumn. Beautiful. Haunting. Soul-stirring.
Beautiful, Just Beautiful!!

My whole self alights on this tanka—and stays awhile.
Thank you for all the lovely, kind comments…and many, many thanks to the Tiny Words editorial team for the honor of such a special publication date. Wishing everyone a beautiful, peaceful, uplifting holiday…<3 Autumn
terrific!
Upon reaching the deadend
better now to wait
than to give up
just to start later on
all over again
Very spiritual, Autumn. The contrast between the unbearable weight of the body and lightness of wings is effective.
